Product: Victus by HP Gaming Laptop 15-fa0000 (680A4AV)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi, I just wanted to know how do I play games with this laptop while plugged in. Do I have to play when its 100% charged or is there any option to turn off the battery while Its plugged in ? I don't want to damage the battery health. Please help

Hello,

 

Yes, it's actually better to game while plugged in — your laptop can perform at full power. Modern laptops stop charging at 100%, so it won't overcharge. But to protect battery health long-term, enable battery care features like limiting charge to 60–80% (e.g. in Lenovo Vantage, ASUS Armoury Crate, etc.). Also, keep the laptop cool while gaming to avoid heat damage.

 

Best Regard,

Sally
